✟

Following three years of friendship, Lane & Megan sat next to each other at their school’s homecoming football game. When it ended Lane asked Megan to go out to eat. There they played a question/statement game when he asked, “hypothetically, what would you say if I asked you on a date?” After a huge reaction she said, “yes.” Then she thoughtfully explained that the evening itself could be considered one. That was day one of their relationship, and the rest is HIStory ❦

“My darling Megan, for the longest time I truly didn’t believe that there was a girl out there for me: a true, Bible believing, Jesus worshiping, Christ loving lady. I’d envisioned that there was honestly no woman in the world for me. But thank the Lord I was wrong, and how glad I am that I was. You were right in front of me the whole time. From the day we met back in October 2016, not too far from this spot, to this past fall- you were there, in front of my ignorance and denial. It just took me a while to realize, it was always you. Now I can’t thank God enough for bringing you into my life and opening all of me to see all of you, and to radically love you. My sweet Meg, I am profoundly in adoration of you. As I have told you a countless number of times, I wish there was a word that defined my deep, sincere love that I have for you and just how much you mean to me. Gold and riches are not worthy to be compared to the richness of your heart. The sun counts itself lucky when it shines on you. The moon wishes it was as bright as you during the darkness of night. The sea is jealous of the hue of your eyes. The air is sweeter with the sound of your gentle voice. The world is truly blessed as you journey through it. Our Heavenly Father perfected His art of creation when He created you. You’re my warmth on a cold night, my light in the darkness, my compass in life, my anchor in the sea, my strength in my weakness, my shoulder to cry on, my soul’s eternal companion, and my partner for life. You are my tulip in the field, my lily of the valley, my Hondo sunflower, my rose in the garden, my bluebonnet by the road, and my yellow rose of Texas. You’re the missing piece to my life’s puzzle. Baby Cakes, you are my one and only, my first and my last, and you’re forever my best friend. I believe Jesus Christ brought us together for such a time as this and the only question I have for you, after a rather lengthy statement, is Megan Catherine Fohn, will you marry me?” “YES!”
